OK, Three Weeks in Scranton

The word I was goping for in that post (Nothing Wrong with Me that Two Weeks in Scranton Couldn’t Cure) was "gritty." Suburbs are not gritty. Cities are, farms are. Coal mines may be the epitome of grit. Suburbs are designed to be gritless.

Also, to be fair, I have always disliked suburbs and developments. It's not just the ones in Silicon Valley. It's the whole worldview they represent. Sometime we'll get into why I feel that way.
